After the 2020 wildfires, Kyle Trefny became a wildland firefighter, connecting with peers passionate about transforming society's relationship with fire. This led him to co-found FireGeneration Collaborative (FireGen) in 2022. FireGen is a youth-led organization dedicated to shifting wildfire management from short-term disaster response to long-term resilience and Indigenous leadership.

Trefny co-led FireGen's national campaign, advocating for youth roles in policy. This resulted in FireGen members advising a federal commission and Director Ryan Reed becoming the youngest federal advisor in US history. Trefny has also been instrumental in shaping FireGen's vision and securing over $350,000 in grants, empowering youth and Indigenous voices for the future.

Humans extract nearly 100 million barrels of oil daily, plus equivalent coal and natural gas. The IPCC mandates halving this fossil fuel flow by 2030 and eliminating it by 2050 to avert

Humans extract nearly 100 million barrels of oil daily, plus equivalent coal and natural gas. The IPCC mandates halving this fossil fuel flow by 2030 and eliminating it by 2050 to avert irreversible climate damage. This energy transition demands scalable, zero-carbon solutions.

Green ammonia offers a promising path. This carbon-free fuel is made simply from air, water, and renewable electricity. With billions in announced investments, led by the Middle East and Australia, green ammonia is rapidly emerging as a "new 21st-century oil," poised to transform our world.

Zac Cesaro, an R&D engineer at Siemens Energy and Oxford DPhil candidate, is an expert in green ammonia production and use, having operated the world’s first demonstrator. This talk was given at a TEDx event.

Humanity faces a critical climate crisis, with only about nine years to halve global CO2 emissions by 2030. While digitalization profoundly shapes our lives, its potential role in climate policy

Humanity faces a critical climate crisis, with only about nine years to halve global CO2 emissions by 2030. While digitalization profoundly shapes our lives, its potential role in climate policy for achieving this rapid reduction remains largely unexplored.

Nick Nuttall, International Strategic Communications Director for Earth Day Network and We Don't Have Time, and a UN veteran, emphasizes digitalization's opportunities for sustainable development. He views digital technology as a vital tool against climate change, citing examples from ocean clean-up to renewable energy. However, Nuttall warns against seeing it as a cure-all, stressing that digitalization must be used wisely to be effective.

Nuttall's insights were shared at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.

Over the past 20 years, youth incarceration has plummeted by 75% as states closed prisons and reformed policies. In her new book, *In Our Future We Are Free*, journalist Nell Bernstein dissects

Over the past 20 years, youth incarceration has plummeted by 75% as states closed prisons and reformed policies. In her new book, *In Our Future We Are Free*, journalist Nell Bernstein dissects this transformation. She chronicles the forces that moved us from a "moral panic" to a time when youth prisons are rapidly fading.

Bernstein's book highlights the pivotal role of imprisoned youth, mothers, activists, and even prison officials in challenging the "racist brutality of youth prisons" and closing institutions. Join Nell Bernstein and moderator Chesa Boudin to learn how this coalition reformed a "racist and destructive institution" and what other social movements can learn from their struggle.
